Joe was inclined to wildness and when speculation failed to provide him with the necessary funds after the "beginner's luck" was passed he falsified his father's books and used the money thus obtained in an effort to bolster up his depleted margins. But discovery came and it was Pete who, mindful of his vow, assumed his brother's crime and was turned from home. He wandered to the north where he slowly made headway with a promising looking mine. Later Joe joined him and sought to cut Pete out with Marion Boyd, the pretty schoolteacher who was a true product of the west, a good rider and a splendid shot. For a time Joe worked hard and Pete had hopes of his reform, but Marion refused to marry him and when he discovered that Pete possessed her photograph and became the best patron of the log saloon though not always a welcomed visitor because of his evil temper while in his cups. In one of these fits of drunken rage he vows to kill Pete and find his brother. A small boy warns Marion of his declaration and Marion hurries after him. Just as he is about to fire Marion shoots and wounds him in the pistol arm. The shock sobers Joe to a realization of his narrow escape from fratricide and two years later Pete and Marion, now married, are delighted to learn of his permanent reformation.
